This retreat was truly transformational! Coach Chikara ensured that our accommodations and transportation were top notch so that guests could focus on inner work and full participation in all of the workshops. No details were overlooked. I absolutely recommend this retreat and Coach Chikara’s services for anyone who wants to make life long changes!

Transform in Tulum was exactly the kind of retreat that lives up to its name. The retreat leader, Chikara, created a genuine sense of community from the moment we arrived, which made it easy to connect, settle in, and feel safe enough to try new things that stretched each of us beyond our usual comfort zones. One of the most powerful experiences for me was the Temazcal ceremony. It asks you to sit with intention while navigating external challenges like heat, steam, and darkness. The work becomes holding your intention steady, staying present to what you’re cultivating internally while the environment around you intensifies. I appreciated this because it allowed for deeply personal challenges while still being held by a group container and guided by skilled, experienced facilitators. If you’re looking for an experience that expands your sense of what’s possible, especially when it comes to pushing your own edges, creating space for new insight, and allowing fresh light in, this is the retreat. Chikara was thoughtful, attentive, and consistently made sure we felt cared for. Every question was answered with clarity, and the logistics and transportation were seamless. I left feeling grounded, stretched, and more connected to myself, and to a community of women who were all navigating their own transformations. I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone seeking intentional growth in a supportive, beautifully held environment.

I had an amazing time! Thank you for a smoothly-executed, thoughtfully-planned, and rich experience! Can’t think of a time I’ve felt more personalized care, better curated opportunities for holistic growth assessment, and grateful for God’s love and grace! Kudos to all for such a great retreat!

I had a truly transformative experience in Tulum. The small group size made the retreat more intimate. The venue was amazing and the food exceptional. I appreciated the cultural ceremonies that tied into our personal intentions. Chikara really shined as a retreat host and her synergy with Aneela as co-facilitator brought the perfect energy and balance. It was a last minute decision for me to attend and I'm so glad I did.

This retreat was amazing! Beautiful space to unplug and refresh. The chef was so talented, introducing fruits and vegetables in new and delicious ways. The sessions were informative, interesting, and prompted serious introspection. The activities pushed me to try new things and participate in so many new experiences. This was the perfect way to start 2026 and I can’t wait to joint the next retreat.
